When we encounter human suffering or personal tragedy, Christians and non-Christians alike utter the same refrain: Where is God? If God exists, then where in the world is he? Why doesn’t he show himself? And how can we tell if God is really working or not? Tim Muehlhoff gives us insight into recognizing how God is at work in the world. He unpacks the doctrine of common grace to uncover how God works in ways that we don't always realize. If we have a limited idea of what divine action looks like- dramatic answers to prayer, healings with no medical explanation, financial needs being met unexpectedly- then we miss seeing how God acts through common grace in ordinary, everyday ways such as antibiotics, financial planners, and thoughtful friends. Muehlhoff offers dozens of illustrations from contemporary culture to help us understand and communicate how God is present and acting in the world today. Discover how God cares for our troubled world as he gives you the eyes to see.
"Tim Muehlhoff has one of the sharpest yet grace-giving minds that we know. Everything he writes will challenge and sharpen you, but with a freedom that brings out the best in you. This book will open your eyes to the majesty of God that is all around us and yet we often miss. Not only will this book give you 'ears to hear' but now 'eyes to see.'"

"The apostle Paul said a defining characteristic of human beings toward God is ingratitude. This book helps correct that leaning. Muehlhoff does a great job helping us see and explain that God's great kindness abounds everywhere."
